I just wanted to wish our sensei Stan Sakai a happy birthday! I hope you are staying safe and healthy and are enjoying celebrating another trip around the sun. Thanks for everything you do and for this great community you've cultivated. Take care and try not to party too hard. :D

Dear Stan,

I have it in my calendar that May 25th is your birthday. If this is correct, let me start this thread (jabba actually started the thread :lol: )to wish you the happiest of birthdays. You have giving us fan a universe of characters and worlds to explore, discuss, and get lost in. And like all good fiction, your stories help us reflect on our own values, be exposed to other world views, and decide what we would do in extraordinary circumstances. In doing so, we develop our own sense of who we are, who we want to be, and who we can be for others and the benefit of our world. You are truly a source of inspiration for me and countless others. The fact that you treat your fans like they are friends is the icing on the cake.

With so much hard COVID-19 hard times surround every human being on this planet, it is nice to celebrate the good in our lives. You are a good in my life. We create this space for others to wish you a happy birthday and share their love for you and your creations that bring joy to our lives.

Have a great birthday, Stan!

Peace, maka

Haha, apparently Maka and I both came here at the same time, both saw no birthday post, and both started a new post, but I was shorter so submitted mine first (Maka deleted his separate thread and moved it into this one when he saw that I had snuck in ahead of him). What a coincidence in timing! :lol:

Happy birthday!

I had a quarantine birthday last month. It's somewhat unusual, but in the future that'll just make the memory of it more memorable! Stay safe!

Whaaaaaaa!!!!! I'm late to the party as usual! Actually I was focused on all the birthday wishes happening on Facebook and I neglected the old homestead here....

So, a bit belatedly, I wish you a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Here is my and Usagi's contribution...
